Car stall randomly

Hey guys, this is my second time with the issue that i was having. I hope some one with similat problem or knows what exactly is the problem will help me out.

i have replaced the fuel from stock to walbro 255 high flow fuel pump with stock sock 2 months ago. As my stock fuel was broken wouldnt let car start, so called the mobile mechanic to have a look who claim3ed as a rb25 specialist.

so he discovered it was the fuel i need to replaced so he brought the walbro and installed for me.the car was driving fine for 2 weeks. And one i was driving the fuel was about quater to empty, and the road was rough and rocky as i was driving the car tried to stall and i had the floor the accelarator to revive and would drive normally. Untill today as i was driving like normal i had that stalling issue by now i knew how can i revive car. As i was driving to drop my wife to work the car stall like usual but wouldnt start as i tried several times to start it would start and turn off straight away. It was the first time i faced it. Tried atleast 15 minsto start shaked the car thought its the fuel pump checked sparkplug all the hoses, afm. All seems fine all the reading were normal on cluster. As i called the tow truck to tow my car i waited like 1 hr and gave 1 more shot to turn in the car and it started. And drove back home with stress thought it would break down again. 

I reached home fine. Wonder it could be fuel pump?

any idea or suggestion please help this brother thanks.

Regards

amit

You could check pressure and flow if you have access to a meter or you could just open up the tank and see if the pump is still properly secured. The Walbro is thinner than the stock item so needs to be properly secured in the cradle. Use a torch to see if the sock is in fact on the bottom of the tank or if the pump has become dislodged. Also I presume you have replaced the fuel filter in the engine bay...
